I’m Drawn To…
Vintage suitcases. Suitcases of all kinds are a pretty neat thing, don’t you think? It can symbolize an adventure, a change, something exciting, or perhaps even something sad. I like the idea and romanticism behind vintage suitcases and luggage pieces even more. Plus, they always remind me of going into the storage closet at my grandma and grandpa’s and playing with their old brown suitcases. These, I have to say, are much more attractive than theirs were…

Taza.
When the adorable Naomi announced that she was opening a shop up on Etsy, I was pretty excited. I am in love with her and her hubby because they are the cutest ever! Everything in the shop sold out in a snap. She just updated it again and there are just two items left. Just to give you an idea of what she creates…

Greg.
I saw Greg Laswell again here at Cafe Du Nord in San Francisco on Monday. He was, once again, amazing. He and his bandmate, Brandon, played about 12 songs and I think know everyone was in love. In addition to having a great voice and playing the piano, guitar and drums (or using his guitar as a drum), Greg Laswell is super funny, too! He really does put on a nice intimate show and I, again, encourage you to see him if he’s in your neck of the woods. I cannot wait until he’s back in the area.
Some clips that other folks have uploaded from other performances:
oooh, someone put up one from the show I was at:
ps – I bought a shirt. I can’t recall ever buying a concert t-shirt before. I kicked myself last time for not having cash with me so I got one this time. And I am gonna wear it proudly!

Oops.
Sorry about the delay in posts. My internet connection was misbehaving yesterday so I’m a bit behind on things. If you’ve emailed me, I’ll be getting back to you soon! Thanks for your patience.

Love.
UPPERCASE is a site I am constantly peeking around. If you don’t already know about this gallery, they are based in downtown Calgary and stock papergoods, artwork and books. The current romantic collection of Love Letters, a series of typographic posters by Janine Vangool, are simple and make a bold statement. I think they are perfect gifts for your sweetie, newlyweds, recently engaged couples, or maybe even just your favorite couple. The prints are very affordable and I think they’d look great with any décor.
